if you elect obama for the next four years, there will be no better than the past four years. i happen to believe that is true, but not very inspiring. it is hard to blame the guy. he wants to get reelected with a pretty narrow cast approach to democratic and independent constituencies. i do not think we will get the kind of framing you would like. i am a little less pessimistic. i do think reality matters. and we will hit a cliff and all kinds of ways. the fed cannot keep printing money and expecting the world to take it or buy treasury notes to fund trillion dollar deficits forever. the economy is slow and going into another dip. i actually think the next president will have a moment between november 7, and i do not know, this summer or fall of 2013 to do a lot. i would bet there is a huge legislative agenda in 2013. i did not really by the gridlock argument. if obama gets reelected, evil have a mandate basically -- he will have a mandate basically the lesser version of bowel- simpson. if romney wins, he will have a mandate for some version of the right and budget, probably

that is how obama got elected last time. host: well, bob, we have a rule at c-span for the "washington journal." we would like you to allow 30 days between your calls, but if you like to call back in another 30 days, we would love to have you on. guest: i think there's something interesting there. obviously, obama had a strategy in the last election. with hillary clinton, he put out his tax returns and said he had nothing to hide. he used that against mrs. clinton and is trying to do that again. the answer is -- if the democrats want to lb ronnie about putting out tax returns and the media want to lb ronnie -- if the democrats in the media want to lb ronnie about putting out tax returns, -- if the media want to pound romney about tax returns, you say they are just following the agenda. they did not want to focus on barack obama -- what house he bought and with who, and even when rezco was convicted and went to prison, it was like, "next thing. tomorrow, we will talk about his surfing or something." they do not want to answer
